Ingredients
  

  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 package apple maple chicken sausage cut into 1/4 inch pieces
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 3 cups spinach
  • 8 eggs
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 baguette cut into cubes
  • Cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Parsley and chives finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and sausage. Cook until browned.
  • Add onions and cook until they begin to soften.
  • Add mushrooms and continue to cook for about 5 minutes longer, or until the onions are brown. Add garlic.
  • Add the spinach a little at a time.
  • It will begin to wilt. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk eggs, half-and-half, salt and pepper in a bowl.
  • Add the bread cubes to the pan.
  • Top with the halved tomatoes and cheese.
  • Pour the egg mixture over. Press down with a spoon so the bread soaks up some of the egg.
  • Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes. The eggs will be puffed and golden brown. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and chives. Serve directly from the pan.
